Bishop Posted December 3, 2006 Share Posted December 3, 2006 Good day Sirs!Just like to say hi to every one.I am a TR relic collector in Taiwan. Since I do not have a camera or ascanner, I couldn't post my collection here. Sorry about that guys... At the moment, I only have 4 mmd EK2 in my collection (Still a long way togo) and 1 unmarked I try to sell it under consignment store.I have a bunch of other stuff like the Ostfront, Westwall, KVK2, SA sports and numeroustinnies..etc. But I don't count them as part of my collection, because now I amonly interested in collecting the top class items such as EK1&2 (must be mmd), RK, DK,SK, KVK1...I think instead accumulate a whole lotta stuff, why not just focus on something that will truly preserve its value.However, nothing thrill me the most like obtain a mm EK. I love EK more than any other TR items. Hope you feel the same way like I do.Have a nice day gentlemenBest regards, Bishop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bishop Posted December 3, 2006 Author Share Posted December 3, 2006 bishop-welcome aboard!the nice thing about this hobby is thatthere is always new information anddifferent perspectives which others canprovide. you no doubt have alreadyseen some marvelous pictures.i, too, collect MM'd EK's, but some ofmy nicest ones have no MM, and are stillidentifiable. enjoy them too!it's all good!joeHello Joe,Indeed, it's all good!You made a perfect sense by meaning that Unmarked EK2is just as good as mmd EK2.Perhaps I should cancel the consignment and get it back ifit's still there!The unmkd one in the consignment store is a wide frame 47mm,slightly bigger than the standard issue of 44mm, which quite a number of recipients converted into RK due to material shortage during the late war. Thanks for remind me that the enjoyment I should be appreciated.Best regards, Bishop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I am correct the 47mm frame is an 'Ubergrosse' EK - I would get it back ASAP - but if you dont - then there are prabably a few folks who would like to buy it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
